I am IN LOVE

and you would be too if you spent the whole afternoon cuddling this adorable bundle of sweetness.

Sarah is now 7 weeks old and I'd only held her once prior to today. Today I cuddled with her lots....and I really needed some baby cuddles today. It's been a rough week and my spirits were low and cuddles are the best therapy ever. I'm so glad we got to spend this time together because they are leaving in a few days and going back to BC for a couple months. I hope their house there sells quickly and they are back in a few weeks. If not it could be late June before they are back. June! That's like forever away.



Thankfully the low-battery warning on my camera gave me a break and I was able to sneak away with the little darling for a quick photo shoot. Oh my what a great time that was. Usually a sleepy little girl, she perked up quickly and was 'talking' to me and making the sweetest faces. I loved every minute of it. I'm hoping I can squeeze in another quick round of pictures of her and her big brother Luke before they leave.

And you have to admit it......you went awwwwwww when you saw that cute little smile didn't you. I could seriously take pictures like these all day long. Pure Sweetness!

(At Work) Boredom Buster Blog Post - Part Uno

via text message ---- "You should update your blog. I need something to read."

Getting right on that.

Cuz I aim to please.

Actually I've been trying to get to it for days now but that whole mountain of paperwork/laundry/errand running/financial crisis thing just keeps getting in the way.

I know. I know.

Some peoples' priorities are just not in the right place. I'll try to do better.

So tonight, I'm cozy in my jammies after a long and stressful couple days and I'm going to update both of my blogs. (i hope)

What's new? Hmmmm

Couple new additions to the family.

Al's niece.....Baby Sarah - who slept in a laundry basket for 2 days. LOVE IT! Made me remember the weeks after Aarica was born. We spent alot of time at gramma's ceramic shop and didn't have a stroller yet so Aarica would nap in a banana box. I should dig up those pics.

Of significantly less importance is the addition of a new pet to our household. We aquired a hamster cage many months ago and finally went to the city to get a critter to put in it.

He's cute and has only been briefly lost once behind the couch but I wasn't even sure he was going to make it home from the city.

Honestly. What kind of idiot thinks a small thin box is going to contain something with teeth like that? We'd picked out the critter and made a quick stop at two stores so Ty could get a playstation game and Al could get a pair of jeans with his birthday gift card - 20mins tops. Well in those 20 minutes the chewing was of epic proportion and I knew there was no way that box would last another hour ride home so I did what any good mom would do and made a sacrifice.I dumped the contents of my beloved purse into a bag and put the box with the ever growing sunroof into it and zipped it up. 5minutes later the little $10 critter was merrily munching on the INSIDE of my $50 purse. *sigh* Nothing a needle and thread can't fix and Emily is thrilled to bits with Nibblet.
